Conscience and Conscientious Objections (Pallas Proefschriften) by A. SchinkelEnglish | Jan. 22, 2007 | ISBN: 9085553911 | 638 Pages | PDF | 5 MBThe book is the product of my search for a philosophical foundation of conscientious objection. The question whether there is such a foundation requires interpretation; it is not self-evident what we should understand by it. I have interpreted it as follows: is there some characteristic of conscientious objections that sets them apart from other kinds of objection, such as to earn conscientious objections a special respect and corresponding treatment?
